The Xdrop platform uses microfluidics technology to encapsulate biomolecules in double-emulsion droplets. This approach enables a wide range of single cell functional assays and genomic analyses. Compatible with both flow cytometers and sorters, Xdrop offers a versatile solution for functional and molecular analysis.
The Xdrop and Xdrop Sort are droplet microfluidics instruments capable of compartmentalizing single cells in droplets. Cells can be cultured and assayed within the droplets, retaining any secreted proteins or molecules. Uniquely, our platform enables the analysis and sorting of these droplets on flow cytometer and sorters, making it ideal for cell function assays.
Xdrop technology specializes in double emulsion droplet generation. These droplets are dispersed in an aqueous phase, ensuring compatibility with flow cytometers. This significantly broadens the range of assays achievable, enabling the analysis of secreted antibodies, cytokines, and other proteins, all confined within the droplets. It also facilitates the analysis of cell-cell interactions and cell killing assays, empowering the field of immunotherapy
Meet Samplix' team at the Festival of Biologics US in San Diego on April 23-24!
Join us at Booth 720 to explore how Xdrop technology is advancing single-cell analysis and functional screening in biologics development.
Watch our latest webinar to see how our Xdrop technology combined with PacBio long-read sequencing enables efficient capture of ultra-long transcripts. Nick Zomer from Radboud UMC shows how this approach was used to target genes associated with Usher syndrome type 2A, a genetic disorder causing hearing and vision loss.
With single-cell assays in droplets, Xdrop reveals the heterogeneity of CAR T cells. In this study we showed that only about 20% kill their targets within 6 hours, while 33% secrete active granzyme B. Such detailed insights into cellular heterogeneity are not achievable with traditional bulk assays.
